  • TUTORIAL in BIOSTATISTICS: the Self-Controlled Case Series Method
    STATISTICS IN MEDICINE Statist. Med. 2005; 0:1–31 Prepared using simauth.cls [Version: 2002/09/18 v1.11] TUTORIAL IN BIOSTATISTICS: The self-controlled case series method Heather J. Whitaker1, C. Paddy Farrington1, Bart Spiessens2 and Patrick Musonda1 1 Department of Statistics, The Open University, Milton Keynes, MK7 6AA, UK. 2 GlaxoSmithKline Biologicals, Rue de l’Institut 89, B-1330 Rixensart, Belgium. SUMMARY The self-controlled case series method was developed to investigate associations between acute outcomes and transient exposures, using only data on cases, that is, on individuals who have experienced the outcome of interest. Inference is within individuals, and hence fixed covariates effects are implicitly controlled for within a proportional incidence framework. We describe the origins, assumptions, limitations, and uses of the method. The rationale for the model and the derivation of the likelihood are explained in detail using a worked example on vaccine safety. Code for fitting the model in the statistical package STATA is described. Two further vaccine safety data sets are used to illustrate a range of modelling issues and extensions of the basic model. Some brief pointers on the design of case series studies are provided. The data sets, STATA code, and further implementation details in SAS, GENSTAT and GLIM are available from an associated website. key words: case series; conditional likelihood; control; epidemiology; modelling; proportional incidence Copyright c 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 1. Introduction The self-controlled case series method, or case series method for short, provides an alternative to more established cohort or case-control methods for investigating the association between a time-varying exposure and an outcome event.

    Hanley and Moodie, J Biomet Biostat 2011, 2:5 Biometrics & Biostatistics http://dx.doi.org/10.4172/2155-6180.1000124 Research Article Article OpenOpen Access Access Sample Size, Precision and Power Calculations: A Unified Approach James A Hanley* and Erica EM Moodie Department of Epidemiology, Biostatistics, and Occupational Health, McGill University, Canada Abstract The sample size formulae given in elementary biostatistics textbooks deal only with simple situations: estimation of one, or a comparison of at most two, mean(s) or proportion(s). While many specialized textbooks give sample formulae/tables for analyses involving odds and rate ratios, few deal explicitly with statistical considera tions for slopes (regression coefficients), for analyses involving confounding variables or with the fact that most analyses rely on some type of generalized linear model. Thus, the investigator is typically forced to use “black-box” computer programs or tables, or to borrow from tables in the social sciences, where the emphasis is on cor- relation coefficients. The concern in the – usually very separate – modules or stand alone software programs is more with user friendly input and output. The emphasis on numerical exactness is particularly unfortunate, given the rough, prospective, and thus uncertain, nature of the exercise, and that different textbooks and software may give different sample sizes for the same design. In addition, some programs focus on required numbers per group, others on an overall number. We present users with a single universal (though sometimes approximate) formula that explicitly isolates the impacts of the various factors one from another, and gives some insight into the determinants for each factor.

Abstract All rights reserved Adaptive enrichment designs for clinical trials may include rules that use in- terim data to identify treatment-sensitive patient subgroups, select or com- pare treatments, or change entry criteria. A common setting is a trial to Annu. Rev. Stat. Appl. 2021.8:393-411. Downloaded from www.annualreviews.org compare a new biologically targeted agent to standard therapy. An enrich- ment design’s structure depends on its goals, how it accounts for patient heterogeneity and treatment effects, and practical constraints. This article Access provided by University of Texas - M.D. Anderson Cancer Center on 03/10/21. For personal use only. first covers basic concepts, including treatment-biomarker interaction, pre- cision medicine, selection bias, and sequentially adaptive decision making, and briefly describes some different types of enrichment. Numerical illus- trations are provided for qualitatively different cases involving treatment- biomarker interactions. Reviews are given of adaptive signature designs; a Bayesian design that uses a random partition to identify treatment-sensitive biomarker subgroups and assign treatments; and designs that enrich superior treatment sample sizes overall or within subgroups, make subgroup-specific decisions, or include outcome-adaptive randomization.

  • Inference for Health Econometrics: Inference, Model Tests, Diagnostics, Multiple Tests, and Bootstrap
    Inference for Health Econometrics: Inference, Model Tests, Diagnostics, Multiple Tests, and Bootstrap A. Colin Cameron Department of Economics, University of California - Davis. July 2013 Abstract This paper presents a brief summary of classical statistical inference for many commonly-used regression model estimators that are asymptotically normally dis- tributed. The paper covers Wald con dence intervals and hypothesis tests based on robust standard errors; tests of model adequacy and model diagnostics; family-wise error rates and false discovery rates that control for multiple testing; and bootstrap and other resampling methods. Keywords: inference, m-estimators, robust standard errors, cluster-robust standard errors, diagnostics, multiple tests, multiple comparisons, family-wise error rate, false discovery rate, bootstrap, asymptotic re nement, jackknife, permutation tests. JEL Classi cation: C12, C21, C23. Prepared for J. Mullahy and A. Basu (eds.), Health Econometrics, in A.J. Culyer ed., Encyclopedia of Health Economics. Email address: [email protected] 1 This chapter presents inference for many commonly-used estimators { least squares, gen- eralized linear models, generalized method of moments, and generalized estimating equa- tions { that are asymptotically normally distributed. Section 1 focuses on Wald con - dence intervals and hypothesis tests based on estimator variance matrix estimates that are heteroskedastic-robust and, if relevant, cluster-robust. Section 2 summarizes tests of model adequacy and model diagnostics. Section 3 presents family-wise error rates and false dis- covery rates that control for multiple testing such as subgroup analysis. Section 4 presents bootstrap and other resampling methods that are most often used to estimate the variance of an estimator. Bootstraps with asymptotic re nement are also presented.

  • Short Course of the 2019 Workshop on Biostatistics and Bioinformatics
    Short Course of the 2019 Workshop on Biostatistics and Bioinformatics Title: Phase II Clinical Development of New Drugs Room 1441, 25 Park Place, Georgia State University, Atlanta, GA 30303 1:30pm-5:30pm, May 10, 2019 Naitee Ting, Biostatistics & Data Sciences, Boehringer and Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals Inc. Abstract: In the process of medicine discovery and development, understanding the dose-response relationship is one of the most important and challenging tasks. It is critical to identify the right range of doses in early stages of medicine development so that Phase III trials can be properly designed to confirm appropriate dose(s) for the patient. Usually in the beginning of Phase II development, there is limited information to help guide trial designs, therefore Phase II clinical trials often consists of objectives for establishing proof of concept (PoC), identifying a set of potentially safe and efficacious doses, and characterizing the dose-response relationship. Some of the major challenges in designing these Phase II trials include the selection of dose range and frequency, clinical endpoints and/or biomarkers, and the use of control(s). Inappropriate Phase II trial designs may lead to delay of the medicine development program or waste of investment. Specifically, misleading results from poorly designed Phase II trials could force a Phase III program to confirm sub-optimal dose(s), or even stop developing a potentially useful medicine. Therefore, it is critical to consider Phase II trial designs, in the broader context of the entire medicine development plan, to make the best use of all available information, and to engage relevant experts.

At the current stage of human civilization, research has become an unavoidable activity but also a partner/helper for most of the problems in the society. A journey has been made for understanding the space of research and essential component of each and every branch/field of academic world. The research is not only an unavoidable component of academic specifically on the meaning of research, definition of research, characteristics of research, methodology of research, types of research etc. This paperKeywords: is based Research; on some Research of the findings process; obtained Characteristics; in the study.
